Really bummed



Recommended Posts

Was all set for my surgery on Mon. the 29th, pending ok by a cardiologist. Had to get a nuculear stress test. So I went to get the results today and get my ok for surgery and the nuculear part of the test came back abnormal:cry and the stress part was not in yet. So we had to cancel surgery and reschedule pending cardiologst ok. I go Mon. to get the stress results. This happened to me 3 years ago, I had a nuculear done it came back abnormal so they did a cath....and my heart was normal, so they called the cardiologst that did my cath to get the records and they will compare them, if it looks like the same thing they will more than likely ok it, otherwise I will have to have another cath done....arrrrggg!;) I have been on the pre-op diet for 2 weeks now who knows how long I will have to be on the "pre-op" diet:cry

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
